Available for $1 (80MSP) on the Xbox Live Arcade
Platformer from Hell takes the well known video game tropes of gravity, switches, and platforms and pushes them to their limit. Hell is a dangerous place, but also a tricky one. It boasts platforming that requires both puzzle logic and fast reaction times. The game’s star, “Tie Guy” can platform with the best of them, but is completely ready for you to repeatedly eviscerate him in the dark and varied depths of Hell during his attempted escape.
While you dismember Tie Guy over and over in 25 levels of futile escape attempts, don’t forget to lust unnecessarily after the 25 bonus dollars that are the key to unlocking 5 more bonus levels, and reuniting “Tie Guy” with his one true love, Pastrami. Take control of Tie Guy to navigate thrilling jumps and mind boggling gravity puzzles in the first platformer truly from Hell.
Platformer from Hell is an easy game to dive right into as the controls for Tie Guy are accessible to veteran gamers and first time gamers alike. The replay value of Platformer from Hell comes from our creative level design and clever use of simple mechanics. Levels will have you desperately attempting another escape run, even after countless failed attempts.
Platformer from Hell was developed by Team Up and Over, a collection of developers who formed under Hoosier Games and made the game entirely for no pay. Profits from Platformer from Hell go back to Hoosier Games to help budding game developers in Indiana attend industry events like Game Developers Conference and grant them access to new development tools. Platformer from Hell is a true labor of love from gamers to gamers, that funds new developers, only costs a dollar, and you can try out some levels for free by just heading to the indie arcade on your xbox and downloading the trial.
